Sobey's Gary Tremblay, Robert Gary Tremblay, Steve Radostits and Stan Ratzlaff scored one a piece, and Wayne Mundt went down for two.

Ahead by six heading into the second, Sobey's Ratzlaff and Dale Polei scored two more before Leduc Chrysler managed to make their mark. Chrysler's Duane South scored a short-handed goal with 20 minutes left in the third. But Chrysler was silenced again as Polei and Gaulton scored their second of the night.

Leduc Chrysler's Earl Secord got one in on a penalty shot but that was all the fuel they had; Sobey's defeated them 10-2.

Game two
